April 13th is the full moon of April [pink moon] 🌕️ I was going to have a moonshine party the day before because I have to work that night, but my wife and kids are going back to my parents-in-law's house, so I planned to bring my own sake and enjoy it with the owner's cooking instead of drinking at home. I called my friends and they all gathered, and we held a "moon-viewing party tonight in Kitchin Usagi" with the usual members. Sono Kangiku Jukinmu 50 Hazy Moon". I saw the jacket at Sake-no-wa and fell in love with it at first sight. I was looking for it, but couldn't find it in my hometown or on the road, so I just popped it in with my Rakuten points. ［Glass.] The aroma of rice with a transparent sweetness, the gasiness of the mouth, and the sweet and refreshing taste of Kangiku, with a clean aftertaste. ［Tsuki no Oubai] A clear, refreshing, sweet rice aroma, with a sweet taste that is typical of Kangiku, from the gasiness of the mouthfeel to the sweetness and bitterness of the back, with a clean lingering finish. The mellow sweetness and refreshing aftertaste that is typical of "Sono Kangiku" are the best 😁. The dish was the proprietress's special tempura of spring vegetables and wild vegetables. It was highly praised by the guests for its fresh aroma and bittersweet spring ingredients!

Hi ma-ki! I didn't think it would go so well after calling you and holding up the store since Friday morning 😁. It's great to relax at home [tsukimi-sake], but it's also great to enjoy the season with friends [tsukimi-sake] 🥰.

Hi, HinaHanaMama! I've been in a rut with the food we prepare at home, so I decided to combine it with one of the proprietress's home-cooked dishes 🥰. I was wondering which one to open since we have a lot of [sake of the month] in stock right now 🤣.

It was almost time for the farewell party, but I decided to have another drink since I had come to Shima, so I ordered a bottle of "Yaman no Kotobuki" which I had my eye on when I first saw the cellar, but then Shima said that the cherry blossoms were in full bloom and that he would open one that he had not served before. I had to order this one. Shinsei X-type My first "X-type" 🎉! Aroma of mellow rice with a little sourness, clear and fruity sweetness and umami, and acidity like No6, followed by a pleasant long aftertaste. The taste is even more transparent than the "S-type" we drank the other day. Thank you for inviting us this time, Maa-san 🙇. Enjoy your second day in Fukui ✨.

Hello, Mr. King of Noodle Wine ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀. Actually, I had a chance to buy a bottle of either "S-type" or "X-type" in January this year, and as a result, I bought the "S-type" and opened it the other day😅. Maybe I can buy it again if I have another chance?

Hello Robin, ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀. I had only seen this in your [Sake-no-wa] post myself😅. I personally find it interesting that the more sake I drink, the more I see the distribution and the relationship between the liquor store and the izakaya I know so well 🥰.

Mr. Maa, whom I have been communicating with since the other day, came to Oita Prefecture, and since the date of his company's farewell party coincided with the date of the party, we met up at Shima & Coffee & Sake for the after-party before the party and met together. Welcome to Fukui 🌸🌸 We were told that you came here to see the cherry blossoms, and it was the best timing as they were in full bloom 😁. Well, here is my choice for toast 🥂🍶. Hato Masamune Junmai Sake 60 Bespoke This is a private brand product of "Hato Masamune" that has been sold by a local liquor store [Echizen Shuzanoten Hayashi] since this year ✨. Aroma like mellow apple, Umami with a little sourness on the palate, and a clean finish with a sharp drunken aftertaste. Yum, delicious 😋. I didn't know this existed💦. I guess they don't sell it anymore😅.

Finally, we heard the news of 🌸the blooming of cherry blossoms in Fukui. Looking around the cellar, I found that we still have some winter sake left, so I'm going to enjoy a glass at the end of winter 🍶. Kibotsuru Gaba Nigori. I was very lucky to get a bottle of this sake, which was also drunk by bouken a while ago and was very well received 🥰. The ratio of nigori (rice cake) precipitated in the bottom half of the bottle is amazing. ［The top clear liquid.] Gulping down the sake Aroma of mellow rice, a slight gassy feeling at the mouth, rich umami, sweetness, a clean finish, and a gentle, sweet, pleasant aftertaste. Mokkiri The same mellow rice aroma, a slight gassy mouthfeel with a refreshing umami, followed by a sweet taste and a slightly tight aftertaste. ［Nigoromi] Gulping down sake Rich rice aroma, a slight gassy feeling at the mouth with a mildly gassy taste, a clean and refreshing sweetness and umami, and a milky, mellow aftertaste. Mokkiri Rich rice aroma, a little gas at the mouth, clear and impactful sweetness and umami, and a long pleasant aftertaste. The rich and thick texture on the tongue is inversely balanced by the clear and beautiful sweetness and umami, and the long aftertaste is intoxicating. As you drink more and more, the thickness and flavor increases, and the change in flavor becomes stronger as you drink more.

For the entrée, I warmed up [BURITORO SASHIMI] and [AKIYOSHI]'s Yakitori in hot water 😋. I really wanted to pair it with the "No6" from last time, but the Akiyoshi restaurant, which I personally think is delicious, was closed, so I had to slide it to this time 🥰.

Hi Pon, ☀☀☀☀☀. I've been resting it in the cellar for a while and it was beautifully separated into two layers, but the ratio of the lees is amazing 😁. ［I'm not sure if it's the same for the other two, but I'm sure it's the same for the other two.

On the day of the marathon, we woke up at 3:30 a.m. and arrived at the site at 5:30 a.m. We made final preparations for the last major event of 2024 [the Fukui Sakura Marathon] under cold weather mixed with sleet, and were able to finish the marathon without incident, even though our fingers were numb ✨.

The next day after another very satisfying "Sake Katsudo in Kyoto", I was back home late every day to prepare for the next "Fukui Sakura Marathon" coming up next Sunday. The day after the "Sake Katsudo in Kyoto", I was late coming home every day to prepare for the "Fukui Sakura Marathon🏃" coming up next Sunday 💦. I decided to have dinner out since I was coming home late, so I slipped in a little before the last order at Pojiya, a ramen restaurant open only at night, but I still wanted to drink a little 😅. The previous day, they had a lot of sake and they were out of 5 kinds of sake, so we ordered 3 kinds of sake and then they said they had another bottle, so it was actually 4 kinds of sake 😁. First of all, we had a glass of the last sake that was served at the end. Machida Shuzo Tokubetsu Junmai Gohyaku Mangoku Nigori The lid blew off from the sealed bottle, the gas pressure increased and so did the anticipation ✨. Aroma of mellow lactobacillus, a firm gassy mouthfeel, and a bitter taste with presence on the tongue behind the sweetness of the lactobacillus drink, the aftertaste is clean, but the bitterness pulls you in. The taste of lactobacillus beverage and the solid gassy feeling will heal your tired body 🥰. Before sake, beer 🍺 and [yuri-gon-chicken] 😋.

Drinking in Kyoto in Early Spring Complete We left Yokocho with great satisfaction and headed for Kyoto Station. Thanks to the taxi ride, I had some time to spare, so I slipped into Inaseya, a standing bar in front of Kyoto Station that I had been anxious to visit for the last sake. Tamanomitsu Junmai Ginjo Shukon. A clean rice aroma, a refreshing flavor and sharpness, and a slightly bitter aftertaste. The entrée was "Luxury Seafood Natto" 😲. What's that? Natto goes really well with sake 😋 Put natto on top of chilled tofu and have it as an appetizer during the hot season 😋. First, we ordered an unnamed hot sake and a limited quantity of "roast beef" 🍴. I drank to my heart's content for the first time in a long time 🥰! Now, let's try to close out the fiscal year 💪.

Good morning, Pon-chan! I was taught by my grandfather that [natto at night is bad for you], so I subconsciously excluded it from the snacks of sake 🤣. I think cold tofu is the image of beer 🤔I will use the knowledge I gained from the sake activity as a reference for drinking at home.

Drinking at YOKOCHO in Kyoto in early spring (3) After opening a bottle of "GANKI," we ordered a sake from the menu that we felt was overwhelmingly powerful. Shinsei Ecru 2024. ［I was excitedly waiting to see what was going to be served at Shinsei (900 yen per 1 gou) and was surprised to find it was Ecru 😲, and it was also my first time drinking it. I got a bottle to commemorate my last drink 🤣. The aroma is slightly woody with a hint of wooden vat, the flavor flows smoothly through the mouth with a woody aroma, the acidity is sharp, and the aftertaste is clean and pleasant. The meat is almost rare on the inside and seared on the outside. It is one of the most delicious duck loin I have had in Kyoto. The final course was homemade mackerel sushi and red miso soup with shijimi clams, which I thought was unusual for Kyoto, but the soup stock, nameko mushrooms, green onions, and sansho (a Japanese pepper) brought out the Kyoto flavor.

Japanese>English

あおちゃん

Good morning, Mr. Jive 😃. Good job on the Kyoto sightseeing and sake activities! YUMMY, YOKOCHO and INASEYA 😊 great course😍. I've been wanting to drink Ecru for a while now 😊 even the bottle 😆 I'll look for a good place to drink it 👌. I'll look for a good place 👌

Drinking at YOKOCHO in Kyoto in early spring After we had finished "Marutake Ebisu", the next drink we were going to order was "Tadai", but it was out of stock, so we changed our order to this one and had a drink with it. GANKI Junmai Ginjo Fruity aroma like melon that stimulates the nostrils, melon-like sweetness on the palate, and a clean, crisp, sweet aftertaste. Served with sashimi and teppai. I was rereading the famous book "Drinking Alone in Kyoto" by Mr. Kazuhiko Ota after a long time, and I remembered the introduction of "Yokocho" and the conversation I had with Mr. Ao-chan a while ago, so I decided to make it my destination this time 🥰.

We started off with beer and chilled tofu, and then shifted to drinks 🍶. Marutake Ebisu Junmai Sake. Aroma of fluffy rice, slightly heavy umami, and a bitter aftertaste. The entrée is fried sweet potato 🍟.

I've been in Kyoto since this morning and paid a little overdue visit to Hatsu-mairi (New Year's visit to Kyoto). It's hot in Kyoto today💦. After walking around, I arrived at a restaurant I wanted to have lunch at, "Yamiami", which is a derivative of "Shomin", and had a drink with them 🍶. Kido Junmai Sake. Clean rice aroma, soft umami with a clean mouthfeel, and a gentle aftertaste with sweetness. The entrée is [striped horse mackerel sashimi] 🐟️ After this, we will have a series of sake tasting in Kyoto in early spring. It was too hot and thirsty, so we started with beer 🍺 and the restaurant's specialty [quiche] 😋.

It's the season when pollen is very much in the air as the temperature rises 😷. In the past few years, I've come to recognize hay fever and get over it with medication, and the symptoms have almost disappeared, but my skin gets worse💦. I hope the pollen season will be over soon 😵. Well, when I visited Nagoya the other day, I went to IMADEYA for the first time 🚶 and I opened this bottle I found there and had a drink 🍶. Urasato Junmai Ginjo Hon Nama. ［I finally got to pick up the "Urasato" that Aladdin is promoting 😁I don't want to tell you that I had mistaken it for "Urakasumi" all along 🤣. ［Gugumimi.] The aroma of full rice, the taste is clean and refined, and the bitterness on the tip of the tongue gives way to a fresh and gentle aftertaste. ［Mokkiri] A clean and calm aroma of rice, a delicious flavor that quickly permeates the mouthfeel, and a pleasantly refreshing aftertaste that is refreshing and clean. Both have in common the image of a gentle, refined, and beautiful sake. The label on the back of the bottle reads "Sake brewing to master Ogawa yeast", which is the same name as the brewer who discovered the yeast, Chikara Urasato. It makes you want to pay attention to the future of sake brewing. The entrée was sashimi of [flatfish from Chiba] and [wild yellowtail from Kochi]. 🐟️

It's been cold and snowy here in Japan for the past week, so it's back to winter. ☃️ This cold weather makes me want to drink heated sake, so let's open this bottle and have a glass of sake 🍶. KITANOKATSU OUMI This is a local sake from Nemuro that was packaged with the "Winter Fireworks" we received the other day from Menshuoh, thank you very much 🙇. We also had a cold sake and a warmed sake to compare ✨. ［Gugurami!] Aroma of slight alky aroma, sweetness with a hint of alky sweetness, clean umami and sharpness, and a firm bitterness on the tongue at the end. ［Mokkiri] Refreshing aluzoe aroma, a slight aluzoe sweetness and refreshing umami, and a clean finish. ［Warmed sake] The sweetness is enhanced by the refreshing umami and sharpness, and the gentle aroma that rises softly and lingers in the mouth is intoxicating! It's quite delicious! I feel it has the potential to be served in an endless loop with slightly salty food items. I tried drinking it while it was warmed up or cooled down, but it lost some of its gorgeousness, so I think it's best to drink it lukewarm or so 🤔. The entrée was Ishikawa flatfish sashimi and a half-size portion of Taniguchiya's famous thick fried fish on a ceramic plate! Cold or room temperature sake goes well with raw fish, and hot sake goes well with the grilled fish.

I applied for the "Secret Shinshu Sake Hanpukai" this season and received a bottle early this week, so I opened it this time to replace the old with the new 😁. The taste review is not much different from the last one, but the gassiness is a bit weaker and the taste is more rounded 🤔The aftertaste is still pleasantly intoxicating 🥰. The entrée was sashimi of [Echizen Yanagi-Hachime] and [Mikuni Hirame] since the local fish was fried this time. 🐟️ The picture doesn't show it, but it goes well with Yakitori (grilled chicken) 😋. By the way, March 14 is the day of the wedding ceremony. If the date of registration and the date of the wedding ceremony are different, which one do you celebrate as your wedding anniversary?

I also had to get up at 5:00 a.m., so I had a hard time resetting with a drink 💦. I had one more day of work left, but I opened a bottle of sake in anticipation that the last day would not be so busy 🍶. Sono Kangiku Occasional Junmai Daiginjo Aizan 50 Red Diamond I saw HinaHanaMama and Aladdin drinking "Kangiku" and I wanted to drink it for a long time, so I bought it at Sake Sento Horiichi in Nagoya the other day 😁. ［The sake was so sweet and mellow, like a melon.] It has a mellow melon-like sweet rice aroma, a slight gassy feeling on the tip of the tongue, a mellow sweetness, a deep sweet aftertaste, and a clear sweetness that lingers on the tongue. ［Mokkiri.] Aroma of mellow, sweet rice, with a stronger gaseous sensation than that of the gulping sake, followed by a firm sweetness and a deep aftertaste, and finally, a clear sweetness and aroma that lingers on the tongue. It has a firm sweetness and a deep lingering aftertaste, but fades out nicely at the end, so you can't help but reach for the next cup. Since the fish restaurant was closed, we had motsu nabe (hot pot with pork belly). It's been a while since I had a glass of "Sono Kangiku", but it's still delicious, and I wish my local liquor store would stock it again. Spatari's chicken biryani is also delicious!

Hello Maechen! This black oil accent is also delicious 🤣. I didn't go to Yamaoka when it first opened, but now I have more chances to go to Sake no Wa ✨.

Hi, ma-ki-San! I personally have a strong image of "Koei-Kiku", but I missed "Bi-Un" last year, so I'll take my revenge this year✨. I checked and there are almost no "Yamaoka family" in the Kinki area 😲.

Hi Manachie! Special miso -> special bean sprouts -> special miso and we're in an endless loop 🤣. I'm also planning to achieve my first [ramen store] this year✨

Good morning, Gyve 😃. I've never had this one from Koei Kiku. ‼️ Fruity, clean lingering taste is in harmony with the gutsy G miso 🤣.
